Jeep Trail is a short, easy out-and-back hike on Bureau of Land Management land in Nevada's Tonopah Field Office, about 1.8 miles long and roughly 3.6 miles round trip. The route rises from about 6,423 feet to about 6,617 feet, with a total gain and loss of about 275 feet each way. The steepest stretch comes at about 0.34 miles in, with a grade of around 8%. Summer and early fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run from highs of about 76°F in June to about 74°F in September, with lows in the low 40s. That station sits higher than the trail, so temperatures on the route may run slightly warmer. For a longer outing, Adt - Nevada - S - Seg 3 lies about 9 miles away.
